菲力克斯·埃德魯 Felix Idle，藝名Wa?ste，來自澳洲，現旅居於東京。.過去的藝術事蹟以他個人的實驗音樂/活動廠牌「Valley Spirit」，以及他為澳洲坎培拉的藝術空間「Tributary Projects」所製作的混音系列「Spirit Theatre」為主，該系列旨在探討夜店音樂之外的DJ混音可能。在純藝術領域上，他也透過傳統媒體，以及聲音、網頁設計和影像來創作。除此之外，他也是一名日/英譯者。菲力克斯·埃德魯的音樂風格貫穿DJ與創作，喜歡玩拼貼，創造有形的氛圍，並時不時在演出中朗讀電音相關文章，後設意味濃厚。
他的音樂企圖傳達網路漫遊背後的好奇心與長時間資訊轟炸所伴隨的疲勞感受。
Wa?ste擅長萃取 傳神Trance、gabba 以及其他的 hard dance 舞曲中的狂喜精神，混入速度較慢但仍非常有種的純音樂取樣；這種具高度侵略性的混種主義進而成為滋長甜膩嗓音與朦朧美抒情詩體的溫床。
他與 Mya Gomez、 ptwiggs，和 7038634357 合作音樂。2017至2019 年分別在Genome 6.66 Mbp 和Quantum Natives 發行作品，也曾與 M.E.S.H.、 Air Max ’97 Music、 City、 Holly Herndon， Eternal Dragonz 的 Tzekin共演。
